Day 1 (February 25, 2024) Arrival

Before   

  We are scheduled to arrive in Orlando around 11 PM, after a 1.5-hour link in Dallas. So in Orlando we won't be able to do much this day other than check in at the hotel and sleep.

After

  All fine in our American Airlines flight to Dallas goes and it even lands 20 minutes earlier than expected. The level of seating, entertainment and food is not up to par with the Asian airlines, but it has become one of our favourites for this side of the world.
Our meal with American Airlines
  There is no need to go through immigration because Dublin airport has an US customs area, with American officers who carry out these formalities before boarding the plane, so the boarding gate in Ireland was already US territory.
Arriving in Dallas
  In Dallas we stop to eat at a bar called Tapas, a tapa of shrimp with guacamole and tortillas. Something new that we liked by $15.

  Then, in front of the boarding gate for our flight to Orlando, we grabbed two pieces of fried chicken when we saw the Popeyes franchise, which we loved in Korea and does not disappoint.

  The flight to Orlando also arrives 20 minutes early, which means that, after taking a taxi to the hotel, which ends up costing us $62, we arrive just before midnight.

  We check in and we like the room, but we don't delay the moment of going to sleep and ending this long day.
